Our style guide, Clear Written Communications, is regularly updated to reflect research findings and consumer testing feedback. This resource is available at our Easy English training sessions and can be provided on request.

Plain language

We also offer plain language translations. This style of writing suits people with average literacy skills who want information that’s easy to find, understand and use.

Accessible or tagged PDFs

We provide tagged PDFs that can be read by people with vision impairment who use screen readers. These PDFs meet a high standard of Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) compliance.

Images and design

We use a variety of image resources to help readers understand key messages. Our designers can incorporate your organisation’s logo and brand colours, and tailor images for a specific topic. We can also provide design consultancy and add images to your own Easy English document.

Consumer testing

We highly recommend testing your Easy English documents with people they are designed for. We employ people with low English literacy to provide feedback on language, layout, images and readability to make your documents more accessible.
